Mehndi is derived from a small shrub known as Lawsonia Inermis which is around 4 feet high. The plant is typically found in Asia and Africa.

The mehndi derived its name from a Sanskrit word, Mendikha. In Indian weddings, mehndi is a customary ritual that adds charms to the beauty of a bride. Apart from weddings, Mehndi is also applied on Teej, Ramzan and Karva Chauth.
